During Phase IV, three workshops will be organized to discuss the outputs of the working groups, develop new initiatives and prepare both policy and practical recommendations for conservation and use of forest genetic resources. The topics of the workshops are linked to the three objectives.
The first workshop took place in Vienna, Austria on 14-15 September 2010 and it focused on FGR documentation/informatics. The workshop was organized in conjunction with the final meeting of the EUFGIS project.
All nominated experts are welcome to participate in the workshops. EUFORGEN has limited financial resources available and it will only cover costs of invited participants. Other participants and interested stakeholders are expected to participate in the workshops with their own resources.
